Convection Initiation Associated With Ambient Winds and Local Circulations Over a Tropical Island in South China

Abstract Convection is highly active on tropical islands. Based on a 3‐year radar climatology over Hainan Island, a mountainous tropical island in South China, we identified a distinct spatial dependence of convection initiation (CI) on the speed of the large‐scale low‐level flow. Convection initiat...
